Return To Door: Day Three, hide your phone

Boys will be boys. PH decided to grab my phone and read my text messages from the night before. Uh oh, I new I should have deleted my outbox. Upon his declaration of my momentary weakness on the night previous, Tantric Ninja collapsed to one knee and bellowed like he just heard the funniest joke ever told. I, on the other hand, crumbled in embarrassment. But, soon found the humor and quickly turned my thoughts revenge; although it will be tough because PH is the text master and rarely allows moments of weakness stride from his finger tips into a potentially embarrassing text. Let’s get past that shall we?

Day three was more rest and relaxation. We lounged around the compound, soaking up more sun, and soon decided for some water sports. Tantric Ninja and I decided that going for a canoe jaunt would be nice, and maybe even a dip in the lake. We were far from reality with that idea. I swear the canoe must have been jinxed because keeping that thing steady was like taming a wild horse. You would think that we would have turned back when we flipped the thing twice before even paddling once, but then again, Maine boys were never known for listening to reason or logic. After two tips, we finally managed to get out into the open water. Our goal; go to Gordon Lodge, park the boat, and go for a swim. Soon we realized after many close calls to tipping the wild horse of a canoe that we should resign to returning back and abstain from any embarrassing moments.

Back at the ranch, the horse tied back up in its stall, the group decided that tonight would be a low key night, so PH took us to a spot right on the water on the other side of North Bay. The name of the restaurant escapes me, but the location was spectacular, food was mediocre.

We ended the night around the fire, while CB remained in the house studying (supporting his dreams of being a rich I-banker) and talking on the phone his lover, and deemed it necessary to divulge all aspects of the trip to her, Man Card violation, then again CB has had so many Man Card violation he may not even be a man anymore; not his fault though, he is a late bloomer. Not much more to report…the night was spent around the fire shooting the breeze…THE FINAL DAY
